Journal ArticleDOI

Seven-transmembrane receptors.

TL;DR: This paper showed that the classical models of G-protein coupling and activation of second-messenger-generating enzymes do not fully explain seven-transmembrane receptors' remarkably diverse biological actions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Desensitization of g protein–coupled receptors and neuronal functions

TL;DR: An important and specific role of GRKs and beta arrestins in regulating physiological responsiveness to psychostimulants and morphine suggests potential involvement of these molecules in certain brain disorders, such as addiction, Parkinson's disease, mood disorders, and schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

β-Arrestin-dependent, G Protein-independent ERK1/2 Activation by the β2 Adrenergic Receptor

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the β2AR can signal to ERK via a GRK5/6-β-arrestin-dependent pathway, which is independent of G protein coupling, and GRK2, membrane translocation of which requires Gβγ release upon G protein activation, was ineffective unless it was constitutively targeted to the plasma membrane by a prenylation signal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein kinases that phosphorylate activated G protein-coupled receptors.

TL;DR: All GRKs appear to play the same general cellular role of desensitizing activated G protein‐coupled receptors, but utilize distinctly individual means to the same end, which are just beginning to be defined.
